BJP has emerged as a competitive force in Howrah South assembly seat. The party’s candidate from Howrah Lok Sabha, Goerge Baker, had polled 34,168 votes in this constituency in 2014. It was a sharp rise from just 4,256 votes the party received in 2011. However, the rise of BJP may result in the advantage for the Trinamool Congress because in all likelihood the former will cut into the votes of the CPM which was a dominant factor before 2011.
